Ryan Munson fell in love with Nissan's 350Z way back in 2007 when he got his first one. Since then, he has owned five 350Z models, up to his most recent, the 2004 Nissan 350Z you see here. He has always had a love for American muscle cars as well, so he ended up swapping an LS engine into the car before transforming it completely.
